Abstract
White L. vannamei have become the most widely cultivated shrimp species worldwide. Cultivation of L. vannamei is one of the predominant sectors in China’s aquaculture industry. This study focused on the physiological and biochemical responses, differential protein expression, and expression characteristics of the related crucial functional protein genes under low oxygen conditions among different strains of L. vannamei. It was found that 6 h of hypoxic stress caused a significant reduction in the total hemocyte number in both strains, while the hypoxia-sensitive strain showed a stronger reduction. In contrast, the hemocyanin concentration showed only an overall upward trend. Proteomic analysis of L. vannamei muscle tissue revealed 3,417 differential proteins after 12 h of hypoxic stress. Among them, 29 differentially expressed proteins were downregulated and 244 were upregulated in the hypoxia-sensitive strain. In contrast, there were only 10 differentially expressed proteins with a downregulation pattern and 25 with an upregulation pattern in the hypoxia-tolerant strain. Five protein genes that responded significantly to hypoxic stress were selected for quantitative real-time PCR analysis, namely, hemocyanin, chitinase, heat shock protein 90 (HSP 90), programmed death protein, and glycogen phosphorylase. The results showed that the gene expression patterns were consistent with proteomic experimental data except for death protein and glycogen phosphorylase. These results can enrich the general knowledge of hypoxic stress in L. vannamei and the information provided differentially expressed proteins which may be used to assist breeding programs of L. vannamei of new strains with tolerance to hypoxia.

AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2020; 227:105610. [PMID: 32920298 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2020.105610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2020] [Revised: 07/07/2020] [Accepted: 08/20/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Pen shell (Atrina cf. japonica) resources have been devastated in Ariake Bay, Japan, and to facilitate the recovery of this species, there is an urgent need to fully understand the factors contributing to its high levels of mortality. Pen shells living in natural waters grow through successive life stages, and environmental factors may affect these bivalves differently at different stages. Accordingly, to elucidate the causes of mortality in natural waters, it is necessary to gain an understanding of the quantitative effects of environmental factors on bivalves at each life stage. In this study, we sought to determine the differential effects of hypoxic conditions on 1-year-old (average shell length: 93.9 mm) and 2-year-old (146.5 mm) pen shells bred under artificial conditions. We exposed shells of each age group to six different dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations for 96 h and monitored their behavior and survival rate. Based on the survival status, we estimated the lethal DO concentrations that induced 50%, 95%, and 5% mortality (LC50, LC95, and LC5, respectively) at each age. We found that for 1-year-old shells, the LC50 values at 48, 72, and 96 h were 0.51, 0.74, and 0.84 mg/L, respectively, whereas the corresponding values for 2-year-old shells were 0.74, 1.27, and 1.80 mg/L. Furthermore, we found that for 1- and 2-year-old shells, the estimated ranges from LC95 to LC5 at 48, 72, and 96 h were 0.39-0.68, 0.62-0.88, and 0.64-1.12 mg/L, and 0.31-1.75, 0.77-2.09, and 1.29-2.53 mg/L, respectively. Under low DO concentrations (0.47 to 1.93 mg/L and 0.49 to 3.30 mg/L for 1- and 2-year-old shells, respectively), we observed pen shells with more than half of their shell length protruding above the substrate. In addition to age and body size, the 1- and 2-year-old pen shells used in the present study also differed with respect to reproductive status, with 7.6% of 1-year-old and 96.7% of 2-year-old shells considered to be fully ripe. Collectively, our observations indicate that 2-year-old pen shells are less tolerant to hypoxic conditions than are 1-year-old pen shells, and we suspect that the differences in hypoxic tolerance could be attributable to differences in the physiological status of the pen shells during gonadal development. We believe the findings of this study will make an important contribution to enhancing our understanding of the effects of hypoxia on the viability of A. cf. japonica in natural waters.

Abstract
Vibrio harveyi is one of the pathogens that threaten the shrimp farming industry. However, metabolic changes induced by V. harveyi infection in shrimp remain unknown. In this study, we first conducted high resolution-magic angle spinning (HR-MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabolomics studies on gill, hepatopancreas, and haemolymph of V. harveyi-infected white leg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. Using multivariate statistical analysis, we observed a clear separation between the early (3 and 9 h post-injection (hpi)) and late phases (24, 72 and 144 hpi) of the infection in all tissues. Moreover, metabolic changes in response to V. harveyi infection were faster in the haemolymph in the early phase and significantly changed in the late phase of the infection in the gills. Extensive changes were observed in the hepatopancreas, with 24 hpi being the turning point of progression from early to late phase infection in the hepatopancreas. V. harveyi infection increased the energy demand in L. vannamei and the amino acid and carbohydrate metabolism pathways also exhibited significant changes depending on the tissue. Thus, each tissue displayed different metabolic changes, depending on the progress of the infection.

Abstract
As awareness of the ubiquity and magnitude of plastic pollution has increased, so has interest in the long term fate of plastics. To date, however, the fate of potentially toxic plastic additives has received comparatively little attention. In this study, we investigated the fate of the flame retardant hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) in polystyrene (PS)-degrading mealworms and in mealworm-fed shrimp. Most of the commercial HBCD consumed by the mealworms was egested in frass within 24 h (1-log removal) with nearly a 3-log removal after 48 h. In mealworms fed PS containing high HBCD levels, only 0.27 ± 0.10%, of the ingested HBCD remained in the mealworm body tissue. This value did not increase over the course of the experiment, indicating little or no bioaccumulation. Additionally, no evidence of higher trophic level bioaccumulation or toxicity was observed when L. vannamei (Pacific whiteleg shrimp) were fed mealworm biomass grown with PS containing HBCD. Differences in shrimp survival were attributable to the fraction of mealworm biomass incorporated into the diet, not HBCD. We conclude that the environmental effects of PS ingestion need further evaluation as the generation of smaller, more contaminated particles is possible, and may contribute to toxicity at nanoscale.

Abstract
Haemocyanins are commonly known as copper-containing oxygen carriers within the haemolymph of arthropods, and have been found in many orders of insects. However, it remains unresolved why haemocyanins persist in insects that possess elaborate tracheal systems for oxygen diffusion to cells. Here we identified haemocyanins in the migratory locust Locusta migratoria that consists of two distinct subunits, Hc1 and Hc2. Genomic sequence analysis indicated that Hc1 and Hc2 have four and three gene copies, respectively, which may have evolved via gene duplication followed by divergent evolution of introns. The two subunits exhibit abundant and embryonic-specific expression at the mRNA and protein level; their expression peaks in the mid-term embryo and is not detectable in the late nymphal and adult stages. A larger proportion of the haemocyanins is present in the yolk compared with that in the embryo. Immunostaining shows that haemocyanins in the embryo are mainly expressed in the epidermis. Knockdown of Hc1 and Hc2 results in significant embryonic developmental delay and abnormality as well as reduced egg hatchability, ie the proportion of hatched eggs. These results reveal a previously unappreciated and fundamental role for haemocyanins in embryonic development and survival in insects, probably involving the exchange of molecules (eg O2 ) between the embryo and its environment.
